While metal detecting on a farm in Oregon, I found a Kramer's House Token. The address on it is 15 N 5th St. As it is badly bent and is stained with dirt, I can't read other parts of it. Does anyone know anything about this token? Thanks for your help.
Sincerely,

I believe this is your specimen:

Obverse:
KRAMER'S/
HOUSE/
15 NORTH 5TH ST./
PORTLAND, ORE.

Reverse:
5

If indeed it is, Kramer's House was an inn and a saloon.
It was in Portland, in Multnomah County. Fred H. Kramer was the proprietor.

Please confirm if the reverse has a '5,' it is approximately 24mm in diameter, and is aluminum.

Thanks,
